Yea it’s pathetic how Rooney is worried about his family. Horrible human being.I think it shows the class of the man that he is the only one in footy saying that, instead of the “poor me/us” pronouncements of Rooney.

In actual football news, I see that Bruno Fernandes has been named player of the month for February. Very odd because he hasn’t been very good since he’s joined.
Just another thought. Will most clubs be happy to have their players start playing again without any warm up games? Even on the 2 week winter break, that was being blamed for some players getting injured on return.
If they start playing 3rd April, maybe that will be just about ok? But, anything longer, I cant see most clubs being happy at all. Players wont be match fit. And then what? Ask them to play 2-3 games a week to try and catch up some ground?
After my initial ideas last week, and what has moved on since:-
Personally, I think that we may be best having the pre-season break now, for at least 2 months (in football).
Sack next years nations league.
Delay Euros for 1 year.
No foreign pre-season games - go to your local FL and non-league teams - God knows, they will need that money. If Tranmere, Chester, Wrexham, Southport and Marine played Liverpool, Everton it will be money-spinners, hard cheese on the premier teams not having lucrative Asian and US tours for one season - muck in, help the lower league teams, we're all in this together.
Finish this season in May/June or July/August. If the first 2 months, still give the players a few weeks off. If the latter cancel next years league cup and FA cup for one season, compensate leagues 1 and 2, and the top divisions of the non-league from Premiership TV deals, and the clubs also. 2-3 week transfer window to happen before the next season starts.
As June-June may be a whole 12 months of playing, give the players a 2-4 week winter break in late Jan/early Feb.
Giving up is the easy and most unfair option - if we did that after Dunkirk, I'd now be supporting Bayern Liverpool.

Ok so what happens to players contracts that expire June 30th? Loan players come back to their clubs?
What about Chelsea who have a signing who signs July 1st? So he can then play for them can he in this season?
Is it really worth me arguing with you, go on, is it?
There are big hurdles and there are little hurdles, and Lord Tyrion answers it very well.
Good one on the pre-season fixtures.After my initial ideas last week, and what has moved on since:-

Or if West Ham weren’t near the bottom 3Not really no as I'm following logic
The season is much easily voided
And I bet if it was citeh out in front like this nobody would even care
Or if West Ham weren’t near the bottom 3
It's a good idea about Premiership clubs playing against lower league clubs, try and support them as much as possible.After my initial ideas last week, and what has moved on since:-

Sorry but the integrity of football for one sailed a long time ago
But as klopp himself said
There are bigger and more important things than football right now.
Couldn't care less tbh... If we go down or not is not a concern to us
We will still exist
We may come back we may not
But for Liverpool it's huge the first title in decades
If it was city nobody would care it would be just another title
Apologies I meant for the "Integrity of the competition".
Klopp is correct and I'm of the same opinion.
Once this virus is under control and the experts say it's safe to get back to normality then all pro football should be reconvened and the competitions should be completed from where it left off.
Next season can wait, Its really that simple.
Well no it's not simple because of contracts and other bits as I keep mentioning
However your right next season could wait
If they say are ready to start in July
Give everyone a one month transfer window to sort out their teams and continue from there
Then it's fair
For example 1st July west brom lose one their best players to us because he is just on loan
So they are weakened and we are strengthened mid season without some sort of adjustment
The simple solution will be all players are contracted to the club until completed end of the football season. I'm pretty certain all players,clubs and agents would accept this. They're still being paid right now whilst they're off.
Lower league Clubs have budgeted for the season with ST sales and gate receipts. Cancel the season and clubs will be faced with a massive bill to refund ST's etc.
I don't think that is how contracts work though.The simple solution will be all players are contracted to the club until completed end of the football season. I'm pretty certain all players,clubs and agents would accept this. They're still being paid right now whilst they're off.

Slight example where it might not work
Say your contract is due to expire
Would you wanna stay? Would you say to club oh I'll stay but will cost you another year or 30th June I'm off?
